Post says the two Louies off to form a new firm Donner Minerals Ltd DML Shares issued 24,279,502 Dec 2 close $0.90 Wed 3 Dec 97 In the News The Financial Post reports in its Wednesday edition that Donner Minerals, an exploration junior closely watched since it released promising drill results in October, says that its chairman and secretary have left the company. Reporter Paul Bagnell says that chairman Howard Louie and secretary Dan Louie quit December 1 to form a company of their own. Donner chief executive David Patterson says he knew no details of the new company the two men, who are not related, plan to form. He says the pair were not asked to leave. Neither could be reached for comment. Howard Louie will be replaced as a director by Donner's new president, Harvey Keats. Donner grabbed the attention of investors on October 16, when results from two drill holes at the company's base-metal exploration project in Labrador showed narrow but rich intersections of nickel, copper and cobalt. The stock shot up to $3.77 from $1 on the news, but has since lost that gain. On Tuesday, the stock dropped $0.15 to $0.90. (c) Copyright 1997 Canjex Publishing Ltd. canada-stockwatch.com |
